Information like which distro would really help someone answer this question. – Keith Stokes Jun 10 '11 at 2:39

We really need to know what distro you're using. Linux is a kernel, not an Operating System. – Chris S♦ Jun 10 '11 at 2:58

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

In a Debian based distro, you should run (as root or with sudo): apt-get install xorg. This will give you an X server. In a newer Fedora/CentOS/RedHat distro, run yum groupinstall X\ Window\ System.
